Super Bowl QBs: Who was better in college, Tom Brady or Jared Goff?

Clemson rolls Alabama for the CFP national title

Despite their difference in age 鈥 17 years 鈥 Tom Brady and Jared Goff have a few things in common.

Both are quarterbacks, for starters. Both were born in California. Both went to colleges where the colors are blue and gold. And both are about to play in Super Bowl LIII, the 53rd edition of the game.

While Goff is beginning his career as an NFL quarterback, just in his third season, Brady is closing in on two decades in the league and has a handful of Super Bowl rings to show for the work he鈥檚 put in. Goff has a long way to go to catch up to the numbers Brady has put up in the pros.

Although this will be the ninth Super Bowl he鈥檚 played in, Brady remains the only Michigan quarterback to start in the game. On the other side, Goff will be the fifth quarterback from Cal to play in the game, joining Joe Kapp, Craig Morton, Vince Ferragamo and Aaron Rodgers.
